The Worthington school district will dismiss students at Worthingway Middle School at 12:30 p.m.
as workers repair a waterline.

School officials discovered a waterline problem this morning and had hoped it could be
corrected during the school day, but later learned that workers will need to shut off water longer
than expected, said district spokeswoman Vicki Gnezda.

“For sanitary reasons, we don’t think the kids should endure an entire day with no running
water,” she said.

The school of about 350 students is located at 6625 Guyer St.

As of now, Gnezda said, school officials expect to resume classes tomorrow.
